The most right tactics of a game with one-colored connectors at short tables is aggressive strategy.
Working aggressively with one-colored connectors you ensure more chances of a victory. You can win directly sweat, you can take an advantage of the initiative on a flop and win bank by means of the continued rate, or you can win sweat, having opened the best hand on the showdown.
Anyway, you shouldn't raise every time a rate only because with such cards it is necessary to work aggressively. A line item as however, and always, is a major factor in matching of acceptable strategy of a game with suited connectors.
Early and average line items
So, suited connectors purchase force maximum if gathers on a flop draw, however to play with a hand "full of holes" out of a line item – a difficult task.
When you are out of a line item, your opponent controls a hand, and you should dance to his tune. For this reason the majority of one-colored connectors don't bring benefit in an early line item.
Sometimes, with the correct dynamics of a game, it is possible to raise a rate with such suited connectors as 10-9 or J-10 in an early line item, thus slightly to mix a game and to counterbalance the range. But in the majority their cases just it is necessary to dump.
Approaching a long loaf line item, it is possible to enter into a game one-colored connectors gradually. It is necessary to play with such hands, first of all, aggressively, preparing them for a raise. Nevertheless, low connectors nevertheless should be thrown out as they are too weak to create positive expectation. For two places to long loaf with a hand of type 8-7 you can raise without remorse.
Late line item
Being on a cutoff or long loaf, you can be sure of the suited connectors, all of them are worthy a raise in case of a favorable fold. In this case you will win quite often sweat even before opening of a flop, even without having reached a shouwdown, in matches against the unique rival who is out of a line item.

How it is correct to play on a postflop?
For some players it will be absolutely hard to play with suited connectors on a postflop therefore with such cards it isn't recommended to limp at all. Limp doesn't give you any initiative. Usually flop won't be able to improve your combination, as a result you will remain with low couple and dreams at least on availability of a line item.
Having made the first raise, you purchase a hand initiative, and it is possible to fill up the pocket with bank, as a rule, without effort having resorted to a cbets.
Look at texture of a Board. Whether it is possible that general cards added the rival's hand? Whether it is similar to the fact that they somehow affected your combination? If answer to both of these questions: "yes", already in principle it isn't important what cards at you on hands. Use the continued rate. Most often, you receive bank without fight.
If on a flop you collected couple, or draw, or even by a combo draw, you in even more advantageous position now. In spite of the fact that raise on a preflopa with suited connectors already became some kind of standard, for many opponents your cards will still represent a riddle. And when the rival can't get to the core of your cards, consider, sweat already at you in a pocket.
What to do in response to raise?
In spite of the fact that suited connectors quite often encounter on raises, in such conditions to play with them it isn't absolutely profitable. In fact, you are left without initiative, and it is possible to win bank only in one case.
Exception only the situation in which you are in a late line item and you play against the weak rival discovering sweat reyzy is considered. You or are sure that you will be able to beat it after a flop, or know that after opening of general cards it will drop the cards, having kindly yielded you the stack.
In these very rare conditions, you can make a float-call on a cutoff or long loaf, and after that to begin to play poker.
"Easy" 3-bet also you
Sometimes you will want to deliver 3-bet with suited connectors in response to raise. You shouldn't do it as your opponent for certain holds stronger cards on hands.
Here it is also useful to you so-called "easy" 3-bet – the main idea consists that your aggressive rival opens a set of hands on a flop, and you know that it does it with weak hands. You can deliver re-raise with suited connectors, most likely, he intends to drop cards on a preflop, entrusting bank in your reliable hands.
The re-raise you rely on eqvity of a fold, besides, at your disposal also eqvity of suited connectors which represent a strong hand draw.
It is necessary to play a little poker
Pocket couples and suited connectors in games 6-max. are very similar. Both of these combinations are hands "full of holes" with which it is necessary to play aggressively on a flop.
After a flop it is necessary to estimate the range of hands of the rival and to analyse force of own combination to decide how to work further. Very often you will get money of bank without the special resistance of the opponent; in other cases it is necessary to collect an advantageous hand.

I was glad to help for you

It depend on your stack size and position and your opponent ranges. One important thing to remember is it is very profitable to play suited connectors when you are 60bb+ as when you hit, you hit it pretty strong and can easily double up. But when stack are 20bb deep high cards have more value, like KTo and 65s go down and you should fold them.

re: Poker & How to play suited connectors

you definately would not want to be playing these types of hands in a bad position

for instance, you flop a flush in early position, by raising here your not going to get much value as the flopped flush can and probably will scare some people off
on the other hand, if your in late you get to see the action of everybody else and hope they have caught a piece of the flop and can take the lead, this leads to bigger raises on all streets for maximum value at the end of the hand

when you reach 30bb these hands now lose alot of value, but still in late position you can quite easily use these type of hands as a stealing opportunity, most of the time your wanting to take the pot uncontested, but if your raise is called, you have a hand that can flop well, and if it does your probably going to get a nice pot

at 10bb or less, you have lost most uses of the hand, because there is no post flop play however if its folded to you you can still try and steal it by shoving all in, but your putting yourself at huge risk as players will call you down extremely light by this point

Suited connectors are very good but it depends on your position and who you are facing since to hit a ladder or a color is better always take initiative never slowplay

if that matter, we must take many factors, size bb, place on the table, and also differentiate opponents and their stack, since not always the connectors hands can be good, get into a boat with 10, j to give an example is not a good hand if we take into account several factors, good afternoon to all

A humble opinion nothing more: Unless you are at a very tight table and there is a great possibility that no one goes up, you should avoid playing this type of hands is first pre-flop positions. Before the flop you do not have any project yet, just two cards of the same suit. If you can not get a project on the flop, you must throw your hand.
Once on the flop you only have to play your hand if you have a project, but play it only until the turn and throw yourself at any raise. The middle connectors work better because they can give you open ladder projects, so you can complete them with two cards. Ex: You have 9 ♣ -10 ♣ and the flop is 8 ♠ -J ♠ -Q ♣, you can form the ladder with a 7 or a king. Then good position factors and others, depending on the stack of chips etc etc.

re: Poker & How to play suited connectors

Suited connectors with middle to low cards should be viewed the same as off suited connectors since they don't add any value at all when compared both. Suited connectors with high cards may be worth more value since you have a higher chance to make a nut flush or the best straight on the table. I usually just lump in with middle to low connectors and see the flop. The idea for that is to see as much cards as you can with the least investment. Lose small or win big if you make a nut.

I play them mostly in position or if I am getting good pot odds. I also sometimes play them from early position mostly as a steal tactic, works well if I establish a tight table image.

I do not play them at the first few rounds. I usually wait to have some winning hands and play them with passive play.

what the connectors do you mean. If on the table will drop T26, you will be much more difficult to play with hand 87 than with a hand KQ.
